Pros

Pro

Powerups combine in very unique ways

There are tons of unique power ups, and most of them interact with each other to create really interesting combinations. The main attack in the game is shooting a projectile, and modifiers on top of that stack making for really interesting attacks. For example, you can have a homing, multi, laser attack that shoots in both directions by combining multiple treasures. You can build really interesting strategies this way and that keeps the game feeling fresh.

Pro

Addictive arcade-like gameplay that keeps the player entertained

With an arcade style feel and fairly quick play through the game makes it easy to sit down and play for hours.

Pro

Incredible amount of content ensure there is always something to do

The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth has all of the original games content as well as many new add ons such as the Wrath of the Lamb expansion as well as many extra characters.

Lots of characters each with their own unique starting abilities, plus many challenges gives the game really high replay value.

Pro

Insane amounts of bang for your buck

You can potentially spend more hours playing Isaac than many AAA games, thus giving more value to ones money spent, as the game is cheaper, but has the potential for many more hours.

Pro

One of a kind thanks to the high amount of polish

One of the best roguelikes out there. Difficult to beat completely and oh so very satisfying. Gazillions of unlocks, secrets, bosses, power-ups and item combinations. Limited co-op (BoIR only). The game can be genuinely terrifying and dark, especially if you take a moment to ponder what's really going on with its backstory and characters.

Pro

Has single-player and local co-op game modes

The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth has a single player campaign as well as a 2 player co-op game mode

Pro

Challenges you both in-game and out

The game its self is very challenging. Plus its story is cryptic and up for interpretation to give you something to think about when you're not playing.

Pro

Ability to walk around the town of South Park provides a sense of wonderment

Exploring the virtual town of South Park is frankly fantastic. Definitely a joy for fans of the series to be able to play around in something they have only been able to watch in the past.

Pro

Frequently hilarious

The humor is what one would expect of South Park, constantly funny and plenty of inside jokes.

Pro

Among the greatest video game adaptations ever made

The art-style, the voice-acting, the animations, the jokes and the plot were as if it was an episode of South Park.

Cons

Con

May be considered too creepy for some

The game to be put nicely is not really scary but just plain creepy. Definitely not a game recommended for children.

Horrible art direction

Poop, flies, bodily fluids etc. Quite disgusting and can make the game less enjoyable.

Con

Limited mouse support

Mouse support is very limited. Exists but can only be used for shooting

Con

Buggy

Even after numerous updates there are still bugs in the PC version of the game.
